Seasonal changes of sediment fluxes in the Yangtze River: roles of precipitation change, human conservation measures in sub-basins, and large dams

Seasonal changes of sediment fluxes in the Yangtze River: roles of precipitation change, human conservation measures in sub-basins, and large dams

Seasonal sediment flux change is a key issue in riverbed evolution and flood control. This paper analyzed variations in sediment fluxes of the Yangtze River in dry and flood seasons during 1961–2014 and the impacts of precipitation change and human interference. Sediment fluxes in both dry and flood...
